The real Moksha or freedom is to realize the fact that ‘I’ consciousness is mere physical awareness***



The real Moksha or freedom is to realize the fact that ‘I’ consciousness is mere physical awareness. Physical awareness is not Self-awareness. The Self –awareness is when the formless Soul or consciousness, the innermost Self remains aware of its own awareness.

Dualist sages could not distinguish between ‘I’ and ‘formless witness.’ The 'I' was the witness. Their highest was the Jiva. One is so much attached to the 'I' that he do not want to think that 'I' does not exist. Again one is unable to detach the ‘I’ from the Real witness.

The one which knows itself as the body with the name is not the body, but it is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness. If the Soul, the innermost ‘Self ‘wakes up from the sleep of the ignorance than there is neither body nor the name nor the world exists. Only when the Soul is in ignorance of its true nature the world in which you exist is experienced as a reality. The world in which you exist is a dualistic illusion created out of the consciousness.
The Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness alone, prevails as formless, timeless and spaceless existence.
If the Soul, the innermost self, wakes up from the sleep of ignorance then Where is the body, where is mind, where is the world; the void; or despair in the true Self, which the taintless Soul or consciousness. They are or have become the consciousness.
One thinks there is mind when he has thoughts, but when thoughts are not considered different from the consciousness, which is the true Self, then where is the division into, waking, dream and deep sleep etc.
Void implies to duality: the universe may not exist, but the thought of the second is there. If one knows there is Void (emptiness/nothingness), then there is something there to be known and know. They are or have become consciousness.
What are scriptures, what is Self-knowledge, what is mind without the objects, what is contentment, and where is desirelessness for the formless Soul, the innermost true Self, which is ever devoid of sense of the duality.
What is knowledge? What is ignorance? What is the ego? What is duality? What is the mind? What is bondage? What is liberation? What is definableness to the formless Soul, which present is in the form of the consciousness?
All these appearances are an illusion, which come and go; hence meaningless to the formless Soul, the innermost Self.
The egocentric knowledge is not ultimate knowledge because ego based knowledge is dualistic knowledge based on the object (body) as subject. But in non-dualistic Knowledge whatever seems to exist also is consciousness; therefore there is no scope for the existence of the second thing.
What is past karmas? What is liberation –in this life? and what is that liberation at death? For the birth- less Soul, which is ever formless?
The nearest state to understand the Soul by itself is to eliminate mentally waking and dream as in deep sleep. Once this is grasped one has to understand everything is consciousness, which is the true Self.
What is the doer or the enjoyer? What is the cessation of thoughts or rising of thoughts? What is the immediate perception and its result to, the formless Soul, which is ever impersonal. A Gnani is the one who is never afraid of thinking and knowing all his individual experience and the world to be consciousness.
What is the world and what is meant by the aspirant for liberation; what is contemplative and what is man of knowledge; what the Self is and what liberated Self to the formless Soul, which is the non-dual essence.

Swami Vivekananda himself said: ~ There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.***




The Guru is useless so long as the ultimate truth is unknown, and Guru is equally useless when the ultimate truth or Brahman   has already been known.

A Guru is needed in religious and the yogic path.  There is no need of a Guru in to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Unless you realize the Self as the Soul, you are all blinded by the dualistic illusion.

The Guru who pretends he to be Self- realized and plays with the emotions and sentiments of the seeker is a  fraud not a Gnani.

All the Guru Parampara is for the religious people.  There is no need of a Guru who wants to tread the path of wisdom.

Even Swami Vivekananda was Ramakrishna Paramahansa disciple. Swami Vivekananda himself said: ~   “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.”

There are two kinds of audiences - the ordinary ones who desire the transitory heaven and other pleasures obtained as a result of ritual sacrifices, and the more advanced seeker who seeks to know the ultimate truth or Brahman.  The Guru and Guru paramparas are meant for the first audience, to help lead its followers along the way. However, there is no need to follow any parampara and follow any Guru those who wish to realize the truth which is beyond the form, time, and space. We should not mix religion with spirituality because the religion is based on the ego and spirituality is based on the Soul.   The religion is concerned with its paramparas, not truth whereas the spirituality is concerned only with the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space. The religion is not spirituality.

Sage Sri, Sankara: ~ "Though I wear these robes of a Sanyasin, it is only for the sake of bread." (Select Works of Sage Sri, Sankara" also his commentary on Brihad)

Thus, the above passage proves that all those who were the sanyasin robes are wearing it for the sake of bread belongs to the religion; they are nothing to do with the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. There is no need to criticize and condemn the Gurus, yogis, and swamis because they are needed for the welfare of ignorant mass in the dualistic world.

Sage Sri Sankara in Viveka Chudamani (2), states that the Knower of the Atman (i.e., a Gnani) "bears no outward mark of a holy man" (Stanza 539).

It means the Gurus, Swamis, and Yogis who identify themselves as holy people are not Gnanis. Those who are seeking the truth need not follow any Guru or any teaching. The one who thinks himself as a Guru and the one who thinks himself as a chela (disciple) will not be able acquire Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, because both of them accepted themselves as the body. And all their understanding, practices, knowledge are based on the false Self (ego or you).  Therefore, the Guru –Shisya concept is a great obstacle in the  pursuit of truth.  A Gnani never accepts himself as a Guru nor he  accepts anyone as his disciple because he was fully immersed in  Self -awareness. There is no division in his consciousness even though he  is in the midst of the  dualistic illusion.    

The consciousness is like the ocean. Love is like a wave. When waves love each other then they become one with the ocean


The greatest hindrance in the path of wisdom is mixing religion, God, scriptures, and yogic theories***



Buddha, Sage Sri, Goudpada and Sage Sri, Sankara are not only reformers but also the greatest Sage scientists. Since their original thesis has been lost in the labyrinths of philosophy and mutilated by pundits and orthodoxy, it becomes very difficult to understand and assimilate the wisdom expounded by the great Sages. In addition, the conservativeness of the orthodox scholars will not allow any research other than playing with the words, which suits the populace, because of their egocentric outlook.

All the add-ons have to be discarded in order to understand and assimilate the real fragrance of the wisdom expounded by the great Sages of Advaita, but it is hurricane task. Thus, it is no use going through all the scriptures when there is a direct path to nondualistic or Advaitic truth. The same time and effort can be used to reach the nondual destination, in lesser time and effort.
Advaitic wisdom does not need the support of any scripture or revelation like the Veda. Advaitic wisdom is not based, not upon the varying theological fancies, which are as numerous as the sands of the sea, but upon reason, the common heritage of all mankind, irrespective of colour or creed or clime.
Seeker of truth has to know that something is inadequate in Buddhist or orthodox Advaitic teachings to reach the nondualistic destination because of the add-ons and adulteration. Thus, it becomes difficult to reach destination directed by the Buddha, Sage Sri, Sankara and Sage Sri, Goudpada. It is for the seeker to go on his own and remove all the obstacles, which is blocking the realization of the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space
The greatest hindrance in the path of wisdom  is mixing religion, God, scriptures, and yogic theories. Moreover, attachment to scriptures, personal God and religious code of conduct keeps one permanently in the grip of the dualistic illusion.
Embark on the journey of the truth; it frees the Soul from the illusion of the form, time and space.
When you finally realize the ‘Self ‘ is not you but the ‘Self’ is the Soul then you will realize the world in which you exist is mere an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
Thus, you, your experience birth, life, death and world mere an illusion created out of the consciousness, the consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.
You are not the witness because the ‘Self' is not you. The Self is the Soul, which witnesses the world, in which you exist. The world is mere an illusion thus, you are part of the illusion.
In reality, the Soul and the world in which you exist are one, in essence. Thus, there is no second thing exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
Perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what,’ leads to a perfect conviction of ‘What is truth?” and ‘What is the untruth?. Perfect conviction of the truth leads to Advaitic self-awareness. 

The world in which you exist hides the reality***



The Soul is prior to the world in which you exist. Remember   you are not the Self.  You are the false self within the false experience. You are born, live and die with this illusory world.  Thus, your existence is itself is illusory. Your existence is impermanent.
 The Soul, the innermost Self is permanent. The Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness, is always there, only the transient world in which you exist comes and goes.

The world in which you exist hides the reality. The reality  is beyond the form, time and space.

 If you desire Self-realization, but you still identifying the Self as the “I," If you feel the ‘Self’ is the ‘I’, you are not a wise a seeker.  You will never get Self-realization holding the Self to the ‘I’. You are simply wasting your time. 

Advaitic wisdom is soulcentric knowledge. It is difficult for people to understand soulcentric knowledge from the  dualistic perspective. Our intelligence is based on the dualistic perspective thus; one has to learn to view and judge the worldview on nondualistic perspective. As one go on reading my blogs and posting gradually he will become soulcentric and will be able to view the worldview on the nondualistic perspective and he will be able to grasp the Advaitic truth.
People’s opinions are based on the dualistic perspective based on the false Self (ego or you) within the false experience (waking).  Therefore, people go on arguing holding their accumulated knowledge as a yardstick.    The pursuit of truth is the pursuit of verification not a pursuit of  an argument. Nothing has to be accepted as truth without verification.
 The judgement has to be is based on the Soul, the innermost Self to understand, assimilate and realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time and space.

The judgement based on the nondualistic perspective leads to Self-awareness. In Self-awareness the Soul, the innermost Self, will remain in its own awareness in the midst of the diversity.

Only perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed. By realizing form, time and space are one in essence and that essence is consciousness leads to nondualistic or Advaitic Self-awareness. When we drop all accumulated knowledge and start a fresh it becomes easier to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. 

The seeker has to have inner urge to know the truth seriousness, patience and humility in order to reach the ultimate end of understanding. A man of truth will not indulge in an  argument and  he keeps distance with such mindset.
